Natural Precipitated Silica

About Natural Precipitated Silica

Precipitated silica is a form of synthetic amorphous silicon dioxide that is derived from quartz sand which is a crystalline form of silicon dioxide. The physical properties of this type of silica can be manipulated during the manufacturing process to deliver products with a wide range of performance-enhancing features engineered for many different end-use applications. It is an important product in rubber industry and has been used for manufacturing tires, industrial rubber, silicone rubber and footwear. PPG precipitated silica products are used as free-flow and carrying agents for food, animal feed and agricultural and industrial applicationsenabling products and processes to flow better. The provided Precipitated Silica is also an integral part of battery separators and Teslin synthetic paper.
